I see Lenovo adds ALL over the place on spiceworks. No idea why.
Just me?
Lenovo is one of a select few companies that spend lots and lots of money on advertising with Spiceworks. They seem to get special treatment from that. Also makes me question weather I can continue to trust anything Spiceworks related
After the LNO situation, how does this make things more "questionable"?

We had an IT and Security audit last week. Guess what the auditor was sporting... A Lenovo laptop!

I had to laugh about it. Last year I got dinged for not blocking github and the similar sites. This time they tell me I can go on github and get a piece of software that will compare my firewall config and detect any changes. The logic makes ZERO sense.

WHAT logic? No auditor I've ever met knows jack s*** about tech. As your experience is proving. They've got a check list and that's all they care about.
